That eco space water logging looks scary. I work inside that tech park and never thought it could go this bad.
I am heading to Bangalore from Mysore tonight, and will reach around 11pm. Need to pass through E.city, Silk board, ORR, Marathahalli. Hope I won't be stranded anywhere and have to turn back.

Edit: Just saw a video of waterlogging at Ecospace and captured the below screenshot from it. Regulars in the area would know about the small bridge over the drain between Intel and Ecospace. Around a year back an effort was put to beautify the space and add a pedestrian footpath. The structure was made to resemble a ship and a nice caption was put on the side.

Have been working in ecospace for the past 7 years. Never ever was there a water logging in front of it, and never thought it could turn out notorious for this reason.
Way to go Bangalore, even almighty cannot help you. All the best!!

Bangalore traffic is insane and needs some hard measures. I had to visit Bannerghatta Road from the airport. While sitting in my uber cab at 550pm, I got an estimated arrival of 736pm. In the end, I reached at 920pm. Way longer than my 2.5 hour flight from Delhi.

Guys, anyone traveling from Iblur towards Marathalli, please update this thread on the road/traffic conditions. I have to drive from JP Nagar towards Marathalli in an hour.

I just got into eco space in car.

Drove from BTM to Eco space. Some congestion just before Silk board due to bad road. After that, up to Eco space it was real fast surprisingly. Then comes the challenge of taking the U-Turn at Intel flyover. Water level is quite high (about more than a foot) and two wheeler's were prohibited to take that. Needed to struggle a bit to get across the water. However, no much issues if you come from Marathahalli side and take the flyover. But there is some traffic atop the flyover.

I am not sure about the condition from Eco space towards Marathahalli.

Sarjapur junction till EcoSpace looked liked a weekend with very less traffic, there was slight congestion near EcoSpace on Marthahalli side due to line of vehicles queuing up for U turn to Ecospace from below the flyover.

Past that, again smooth sailing till Kadubeesinahalli. However, on direction from Marathahalli - Sarjapur junction, there is still water logging in front of Ecospace.

Both in main road and service road water logging is only ~ 30 cms deep. Vehicles are plying in boht main and service road, however due to water the movement is slow and hence there is a long line of traffic all the way till Kadubeesinahalli (around new horizon college).
